There's nothing I like better than seeing
a locationless cache in ARCHIVED
status! (If you don't know what a locationless
cache is, just ask). It's good to know that
noone will be able to count these 'caches' as
finds; a certain model of a Corvette, an animal
parade, a game shop or a stadium seat.
Below are links to archived locationless/virtual
cache page or some interesting images that
happened to be on those pages. (Note: you
have to be logged into geocaching.com in
order to see any archived cache web page)

The Elusive American Split Window Cache (locationless):
(this was never approved)
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?id=30023
**The year is 1963. The American icon is the Chevrolet
Corvette Split Window. Give GPS reading of nearest town
or crossroads. Supply a pic with the Split Window and you
or you GPS also in the shot. One pic, One car per
Geocacher, usual Virtual rules apply.**
Parade of Animals (Locationless):
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?id=24775
**This is another locationless cache. The trick: find a "parade
of animals" that a city is putting on.
Requirements:
- This must be a parade of animals where the local town
or city provides basic sculptures that
artists embelish with their own talents.
- Choose your own favorite animal from the parade.
- Take it's picture (not necessarily with the GPS).
- Post it's name and coordinates, and any explanation that you feel important.
- You can log multiple "parades", but only one animal per parade."**
Game Store Cache (Locationless):
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?id=24421
** This is a virtual Cache. Since I'm a game designer by
profession, I thought it would be fun to create a virtual cache
which promoted my favorite hobby. To get credit for logging
this cache you must locate a game store (any store which sells
primarily games -- role-playing, board games, cards etc.) snap
a picture and post it along with the coordinates. You can log
it multiple times for multiple stores as long as you're the FIRST
person to log it. Please post the store's hours as well.**
Kauffman Cache (Virtual, but silly)
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_details.asp?id=23982
** You need to find the seat within Kaufmann Stadium that
has "www.geocaching.com" written on the back of it. Email
me the Section, Row & Seat numbers if you want to confirm
you found the correct seat. If you want a hint you can look
at the attached picture to see the view from the seat. The
additional hint will give you the seat number if you need more
help.
